Do you want to know how to stay in Europe longer than 90 Days? We have avoided the 90/180 Schengen Rule and lived in Europe for almost four years visa free and without residency in any country. We will show you how we have managed to avoid the 90-day rule in Europe and where we go after the first 90 days during our slow travel! We will teach you what is the Schengen zone in Europe and how knowing the countries in the Schengen and outside of the Schengen is the first step in planning the Schengen Shuffle. There are new rules coming into effect in May 2025. We will explain what to expect, your options for the Schengen Shuffle and how to use the Schengen Calculator.
Understanding the Schengen
The Schengen Area consists of 29 European countries that have abolished passport control at their mutual borders.
This means that once you enter one of the countries of the Schengen area, you can travel freely within the zone for a certain number of days without needing a visa. The exact number of days varies from country to country, so it's important to plan your itinerary accordingly.
When planning your trip, it's essential to keep track of the number of days you spend in each country. The Schengen Agreement has a rule called the "90/180 rule," which means that you can only stay in the Schengen Area for a maximum of 90 days within a 180-day period. This rule is crucial to avoid overstaying your welcome and facing potential consequences.
